Cheap Easter and spring break airline tickets with Kiwi.com
Easter Sunday 2026 falls on April 5, with Good Friday on April 3. While Easter is not a federal holiday in the US, many schools have spring break around this time, making it one of the busiest travel weekends of the spring. Flights from major hubs fill up fast, especially to warm-weather destinations.
How to find cheap Easter flights in 2026
Good Friday (April 3) and the Thursday before it are among the most expensive departure days of the Easter weekend. If your schedule allows, departing on Tuesday or Wednesday can save you a noticeable amount. Comparing prices across nearby airports is also worth it: flying from a secondary airport like Oakland instead of SFO, or Fort Lauderdale instead of Miami, can make a big difference.
When to book Easter flights for the best fare
For international flights, the sweet spot for booking is typically 6 to 10 weeks before departure. For domestic flights, 3 to 5 weeks ahead usually works well. Prices tend to climb sharply in the final two weeks before Easter as seats fill up. Setting a price alert helps you catch the right moment to book without constantly checking.
Popular Easter travel destinations from the US
Cancun, Puerto Rico and the Caribbean islands top the list of Easter getaways for American travelers looking for sun. Domestically, Florida (Orlando, Fort Lauderdale, Miami), Las Vegas and San Diego see huge demand. For families, Orlando's theme parks are a perennial favorite over spring break. European destinations like London, Paris and Rome are also popular for those looking for a longer trip. If you are flexible on destination, try searching with an open destination to see where flights are cheapest from your airport.
Tips to save on Easter flights
Mid-week flights (Tuesday to Thursday) are almost always cheaper than Friday or Monday departures over Easter. Mixing airlines on your outbound and return legs can unlock lower fares you would not find with a single carrier roundtrip. Red-eye and early morning departures are less popular and often significantly cheaper on holiday weekends. If you are flying domestically, consider nearby airports for both departure and arrival.

Real customer reviews from travelers who booked with us:
“I had a problem with my return flight as I had a stopover and my first flight was late and made me miss my second flight. kiwi quickly and easily rebooked me on the next flight. the process was transparent and guided by customer service over the phone instead of a machine or chat, which is greatly appreciated in such a delicate situation. I don't usually leave comments or ratings but on this occasion they have earned a positive comment.”

“I had heard not great things about kiwi so was really nervous about booking with them. however service was great and flights went smoothly (they even checked in for me!), so it was all in all a terrific experience. I especially liked how quickly they responded to my many queries and how patient they were with me. excellent customer service!”
